"I still wonder why the yankees can still fly into such environment and wont allow 5N into theirs even with their yankees better facilities?"

Short Answer: MONEY!!!
LHR id the most lucrative route in the entire route syster for BA
In the 14 Months that Delta has been operating ATL LOS this route has become the #1 revenue earner for delta.

SO NOW enter fron stage left. UNITED Airlines!!!.
So go figure..... It all plays into the nigerian government hands, beccause if the FAA does not change its status to category 1 next FEB, Lookout! cause the Nigerian government WILL cancel all their landing rights!!!!

The best is yet to come!!
